Getting the music

To get my music i am looking at websites like unsinged.com to find my music because they don't have any copyright music so we wont get in trouble if we use it.  


So far i have found some decent songs that we maybe able to use but because it is RnB we not be aloud to use it.

This is why me and my group are discussing carefully on what song we may want to use.

What factor must be taken into consideration when planing a video?

The factors you need to consider when planing a music video is the type of song it is going to be, and the lenght of the song. You will also need to consider how much money you are going to spend on the music video but in our situation the budget it nothing. where you are going to set the music video and the target audience.

Key things:

  • Genre
  • Cost management 
  • Setting
  • Target audience
  • Costumes
  • Director
  • length of song

LMFAO - Party Rock Anthem ft. Lauren Bennett, GoonRock



This is my current favourite music video because that it has a lot of fast paced dancing. Also majority of the lyrics is at a steady pace only for one section it speeds up but them it slows down. This song is very happy and an up lifting song because it set outside with the sun shining.

The Brief

My task this year is to make a music video which is going to last up to 5 minutes. And i am going to be working in a group. Also part of my coursework i will need to create a 'digipak' which is a cover for a CD and also a magazine 'digipak'.
